I have no problem with the gov't managing the resource through seasons, limits, slot sizes, sanctuary zones, number of rods/hooks, barbless, artificials only, etc...but restricting the way in which I can "find" fish...well, that's over the line for me. Regardless, trying to prohibit technology never works. Edited April 2, 2023 by CrowMan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s ban outboards and trolling motors, they do far more to put fishermen on fish than livescope ever has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, trying to prohibit technology never works. Funny that you mention that, there are a some US states that have banned trail cameras, or cellular trail cameras for hunting. Not that far of a stretch to ban some technology for fishing. I'd be some pissed if they banned ipilot lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, trying to prohibit technology never works. If they actually managed the resource. I think they do a crap job of it as it is all reaction rather than actual planning and management. I had a co make a crappy comment to me this winter about keeping a small lake trout and I told him I just wanted one little guy for breakfast. Then his partner goes on to say that a laker doesn't mature till about 22 inches for reproduction. So whats the point. Do you know what you are talking about or not. Not you crow, him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
